There is something to be said about being a blue-blood in college athletics. When you are an elite school, recruiting comes easy and with that influx of talent, national championships are not far behind. There can be a downside to being a national power in one of the major sports. Schools pool their resources and focus on what works. Kentucky and Duke are almost always guaranteed to be near the top of the basketball standings but languish behind in football. Alabama and Clemson recently played for the last two national championships in football but neither one made NCAA tournament in basketball.
